Design and Appraisal of Hydraulic Fractures

Beschreibung

Using an interdisciplinary approach, Design and Appraisal of Hydraulic Fractures offers a basic yet comprehensive introduction to the completion and reservoir engineering aspects of hydraulic fracture stimulation. The book covers the design and placement of a hydraulic fracture stimulation. It introduces the use of dynamic data to characterize the in-place hydraulic fracture, outlining the methods of pressure-transient analysis for both pressure-drawdown and pressure-buildup tests. Three approaches are discussed: rate-decline type curves, analytical and semianalytical methods, and numerical simulation. Essential elements are given for each and illustrated with field examples.

Autor

Jack R. Jones began his career in 1982 at Amoco's Tulsa Research Center, while completing a PhD degree in petroleum engineering at the University of Tulsa. His work at Amoco focused on problems in well testing, gas reservoir engineering, hydraulic fracture evaluation, petrophysics, and reservoir simulation. Since 1998, Jones has divided his time working for BP Trinidad in Port of Spain and BP Canada in Calgary, executing various aspects of a number of different gas-field developments. Presently, he holds the position of reservoir engineering technical advisor in BP Canada's Calgary office. Jones is the coauthor of 25 papers and has served on a number of SPE technical committees.
